Hi Matthias, When support tells one that he/she is now responsible for keeping Wordpress up to date or face the loss of one’s account, they should at least point out what you have shared with us.

No one who has not yet installed Wordpress would know about the automatic upgrade capability. It is also highly unlikely that any user would be willing to log into his/her account every hour of every day just to make sure that Wordpress is up to date so they don’t lose their account. What version of LC is currently installed on On-Rev? It was pretty old the last time I checked. Perhaps an option to easily upgrade to the newest version of LC on On-Rev should be offered? A lot of people paid a bunch of money for On-Rev, and then when support at Run-Rev discovered it was more work than they bargained for, they outsourced it to other companies. The first time it was outsourced, the result wasn’t good. Things are better than they were, but there is still room for improvement. Whenever a company accepts people’s money, that company has an obligation to provide better than average service if they want to stay in business. If it were up to me to run On-Rev, I would make sure that it was always up to date, or offered easy ways to keep everything up to date. You’d never hear me threaten anyone to take away their account if they didn’t keep some piece of software up to date. If that software poses a security risk, as a good steward, I would take care of that issue for my clients so they wouldn’t be at risk. Just my 2 cents for the day. Thank you for your helpful information about Wordpress etc. Cheers, Rick > On Dec 6, 2017, at 6:33 AM, Matthias Rebbe via use-livecode > <use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > > >> Am 06.12.2017 um 07:14 schrieb Rick Harrison via use-livecode >> <use-livecode@lists.runrev.com <mailto:use-livecode@lists.runrev.com>>: >> Then On-Rev wrote us that note saying that we were >> the ones that would be held responsible for >> ensuring that Wordpress was always up to >> date on our accounts or we could lose our >> accounts.
